24 Exorcist At Work

But still Wu Bai Wan could not resist the temptation of teasing Xiao Ying Ya and turn his head back with a wide grin on his face, he then open his mouth and says. "Even without that extra weight on your chest still you can't catch me."

"Wu Bai Wan I hope you won't stop or I might really kill you." Xiao Ying Ya replies coldly. Contrary to what she expected Wu Bai Wan suddenly stop right in his tracks, under the white streetlight he starts s.h.i.+vering from head to toe looking into the pitch black void in front of him.

Xiao Ying Ya finally chased up to Wu Bai Wan, when she reaches him she raise up her fist and prepare to punch him. All the sudden her fist stops right before she punches Wu Bai Wan, she turns her head and sees Yang Guang who also chased up to them summoning his rattan pole preparing to fight.

A golden glow coming from the ribbon tied on the hilt of Xiao Ying Ya's wooden sword lights up the darkness, the ribbon starts to weave itself into an orange lantern with a white flame inside.

The orange lantern light up the black void in front of Wu Bai Wan and s.h.i.+nes on his body like the sun in midday.

"So warm, so bright am I dead already?" Wu Bai Wan starts to mumble to himself while in a daze.

SMACK

Xiao Ying Ya hits Wu Bai Wan in the head with her wooden sword, snapping him out from his daze.

"Where is that bunny?!" Wu Bai Wan shouted when he just snaps out from his daze, he frantically look around but sees nothing.

"He is standing right behind you now." Xiao Ying Ya said indifferently while pointing at Wu Bai Wan.

Wu Bai Wan slowly turns around and sees a man in a grey bunny suit looking at him, Wu Bai Wan let out a dry laugh and starts to run the other way around.

"So are you going to deal with it?" Xiao Ying Ya ignores Wu Bai Wan who is being chase by the grey bunny man and asks Yang Guang. Yang Guang looks at the grey bunny man and casually says. "Exorcising spirits are your specialty, you should deal with it."

"You are just lazy aren't you?" Xiao Ying Ya rolled her eyes in reply. Yang Guang let out a cheeky laugh and take a few steps back and lean up against the wall.

Xiao Ying Ya use her wooden sword as a handle for the orange lantern and points it at the grey bunny man, the light from the orange lantern suddenly become brighter and blinds the grey bunny man causing him to close his eyes in pain.

"I'm finally here." Yu Chen whose face is now pale from all the running said with the bags of junk food and soft drinks in both of his hand. Yang Guang tilt his head and says. "Good, now look closely to how Ying Ya is going to fight, it might teach you something new."

"How is she going to win with just a midnight lantern?" Yu Chen asked with a frown on his face while pointing at the orange lantern on Xiao Ying Ya's sword.

Yang Guang laughs out loud when he heard what Yu Chen just said, he then looks at Yu Chen and says. "You think that somebody on the top ten ranking would have something so useless like a midnight lantern?"

After Yang Guang finish what he wanted to say then Xiao Ying Ya's orange lantern began to spew out a clump of white flame from the opening on top, Xiao Ying Ya then direct the white flame towards the grey bunny man who is still blinded by the orange lantern's light.

"Dear spirit, be cleanse from malevolent intent." Xiao Ying Ya said while the white flame burns the grey bunny man into ashes, then grey bunny finally has been exorcised leaving a black pearl behind.

"It's done already?" Yu Chen could not believe his eyes when he sees the grey bunny man get finish off so quickly. Yang Guang nods and walks up to Xiao Ying Ya, "Nice, you finally could use your midday lantern."

"So what's next?" Xiao Ying Ya asked while her midday lantern turns back into ribbons on her wooden sword. Yang Guang looks at Yu Chen with a smile and says. "I hope you can teach Yu Chen a thing or two about hunting."

"How lazy and shameless can you be?" Xiao Ying Ya asks with an irritated look on her face, Yang Guang's smile turns into a smirk when he says. "As long as I get to sleep I will do even crazier things."

Xiao Ying Ya sighs and walks towards Yu Chen, the two of them then finds a place to sit and starts to talk.

"So what do you want to do next?" Xiao Ying Ya asks Yu Chen who is opening a can of cola. "What do you mean?" Yu Chen asks with a confuse look on his face.

"What I mean is what you want to do after you leave Song City?" Xiao Ying Ya asked with a stern look on her face, without giving Yu Chen any chance of talking then continues. "You can't be thinking of staying here forever right?"

"How do you know that I'm staying in Song City for a while?" Yu Chen asked once more.

"It's quite easy to guess, Yang Guang rarely works with other people so you must be here for an interns.h.i.+p or something." Xiao Ying Ya then looks at Yu Chen and says "Now it is your turn."

"I don't know what my goals will be after one year, ten years or a hundred years but I know that my current goal to become stronger and go back to Gallant city with my head up high." Yu Chen said his voice brings a tone of confidence unlike the first time when he talked about his goals with Yang Dou w.a.n.g on the peak of the mountain.

"That is quite a nice goal but how are you going to achieve it?" Xiao Ying Ya asks Yu Chen another question, this time Yu Chen was stump by her question because it never cross his mind.

how am I going to get stronger?

'Surely following Senior Yang Guang around every night isn't going to work, running around the city every morning also didn't help, I'm too poor and weak to get any soul dust for myself.' Yu Chen keeps on thinking and thinking but he can't find an answer.

"Let's start with something simple first." Xiao Ying Ya casually said while looking at Yu Chen who is frantically scratching his head for answers.

"Do you want to be a d.a.m.n hunter?" Xiao Ying Ya asked her first question and Yu Chen quietly nods.

"The do you want join combat or craft, don't tell me that you want to be like Yang Guang who is a jack of all trades?" Xiao Ying Ya asked once more. This time Yu Chen starts pondering for a while.

"If you want to join combat you can be a warrior like Yang Guang, a exorcist like me or a trap maker like that b.a.s.t.a.r.d Wu Bai Wan. For craft you can be a weapon smith, talisman calligrapher, resource gather or researcher." Xiao Ying Ya said with a smile.

"If you want to be a trap maker I can teach you everything I know!" out of nowhere Wu Bai Wan's voice echo into their ears, all the sudden Wu Bai Wan pop up from nowhere and sits in between them.

At the same time Yang Guang also appear and asks. "What's a resource gatherer, something edible?"

"Can you two idiots leave us alone?" Xiao Ying Ya said coldly, she draws her wooden sword and points it at Yang Guang and Wu Bai Wan. The both of them takes a step back each and grabs the bag of snack then leave the pair alone once more.

"I want to be a warrior." Yu Chen said after Yang Guang and Wu Bai Wan left, his voice lacks confidence and fear but he still said what he wants to do.

"Good at least now you know what you should do, the next step is learning how to be a hunter form Yang Guang's grandfather." Xiao Ying Ya said a sense of relief surface in her heart when Yu Chen said what he wants to do.

'At least he won't keep on wandering aimlessly.' Xiao Ying Ya thought to herself. "Yes running around every morning without end is not training but torture." Yang Guang suddenly return, he reach his hand out and grabs the plastic bag that is fill with soft drinks after that he turn around and leave.

"Ermm, Miss Xiao can I ask you a question?" Yu Chen asked and Xiao Ying Ya nods.

"Do you know what senior Yang Guang's goal is?" Yu Chen asks hoping to get an answer.

Xiao Ying Ya laughs and says. "Simple, his goal is to take down one of the

tien helde (Ten Heroes)."

"Huh, you mean the ten people who control the d.a.m.n hunters? THAT TIEN HELDE!?" Yu Chen shouted his whole world is flipped around due to what he heard how can one teenager take on a legend?

'Which one is it, is it the talisman queen, natural hunter, creator or could it be the legendary battle king? no matter who senior Yang Guang wants to take down it all not going to end well.' Yu Chen never realize that Yang Guang the one who hate steam buns, buys magazine to help him hunt, the one who plays rock paper scissors with cats actually have such a crazy dream.

"My goal is to break into the top five on the rankings, so let all work towards our goals." Xiao Ying Ya said while preparing to leave, Yu Chen nods and they both of them meet up with Yang Guang and Wu Bai Wan who are stuffing their faces with food and drinks nonstop.

"Done?" Wu Bai Wan asked while putting potato chips in his mouth, Xiao Ying Ya nods and gives thumbs up to Yu Chen. Yang Guang then finishes the bottle of cola in his hand in one gulp and says. "Then let's continue."
